Re: And so it begins................
Those do look pretty good. How do they sit? They look kind of tall. Not in the back but from the floor up.

Re: And so it begins................
I have no idea. Scott took them out of a 88-98 truck but that's not what they came from originally. If anyone knows, shoot me the info please. They are both passenger seats too. I'd like to locate a driver's seat to swap out if I can.

Re: And so it begins................
Ok, I'm troubleshooting the A/C now so I'll have to get back to the body work later. For some reason it decided to stop cooling even though it isn't low on freeon. If anybody knows someone with experience in dealing with POA a/c systems let me know.

Re: And so it begins................
i would start by layin hands on it.. realy grab the lines. make sure there is no sudden temp drop. do the same on the condensor. make sure that there is nothing blocking the evap.. thats where I would start. then leme know what your pressures are. Is your compressor cycling or is it staying off, or on...

Re: And so it begins................
That's the thing with a POA system, the compressor doesn't cycle. It just stays on. I haven't been able to check the high side pressure yet but the low side was reading about 25psi

Re: And so it begins................
IF everything else is working right, and IF you are still running R12, you need to add some. You should be in the 28-30 range.

Re: And so it begins................
Trying breaking off the line to the condenser and see how long it sprays everywhere. If it sprays for over a minute, you HAD plenty.

Re: And so it begins................
the compressor will cycle if there is to little freon or if the pressure on the high side is to high it will shut the compressor off. pressure will drop then it will come back onl. It looks like cycle.

Re: And so it begins................
25 on the low side is pretty low, it needs to be at least 35-40...
BTW, what is POA? oh wait....are you running R-12 or R-134? that makes a difference in pressures. I have seen the compressor go bad and it would still run but it would not build any pressure on the high side.

Re: And so it begins................
That's a Hyperism Joe. Guess he need's to have a quick guide for us!
![]() Man I wish I knew more about A/C. Is it still the old R12 system, or have you converted to 134A? |

Re: And so it begins................
If you are running 134 did you adjust the poa?
